Saturday night I gave Francie a bath... she was splashing and being a wild banshee in the tub so I took her out and told her if she was going to make a mess we were all done with the bath. I struggled to get her dried off, diaper on and PJ's on (with a onesie that snaps twelve ways from Sunday) while she kept saying "BAAF? Peeeease!!!" I kept telling her no to more bath and finally set the clean and clothed wild child down and said "Go show Dad you are all clean!" so I could pick up after the tornado of a mess she had left in her trail when all of the sudden I hear a huge SPLASH! Heff and I both ran into the bathroom to see Francie back in the tub (which I hadn't drained, I know bad mom) happily splashing around fully clothed. I think by the look on her face in the picture above she knew exactly what she was doing!

Little Banshee!

and more splashing... damage was done, might as well let her play.

Saturday we all got out in the 70 degree weather and had lunch with Anne, Sergey and their new baby downtown Menlo Park. Francie has a thing for babies... hopefully she won't lose the love in the next three months when her baby brother or sister arrives :) After lunch we hit Le Cirque for some shopping of course! Francie found some $300 cowboy boots she had to have but luckily Dad was there to knock some sense into her :)

We had my parents over for dinner Saturday night and Francie showed off her "I have Jannie wrapped around my finger" skills :) and Friday night we were half-way planning a date night out but decided to make dinner at home and be lazy instead... Francie was running around talking about "salts" (aka somersault) so she helped me pull all the pillows out in the living room to "hide" (her favorite past time lately) and do some of her newly learned gymnastics moves ;)

All these pillows and you roll around on the hardwood floor Francie?

She talked Dad into hiding with her in her under-the-crib-fort. Since I am way too lazy to actually get on my belly on the floor when we play, Heff had to inform me she has a whole little world set up under her crib with a robe spread out like a blanket and stuffed animals in the corners ;)
